RTTOV v9 resources

Version 9 of RTTOV was first released in March 2008. The code is no longer available and it is recommended users upgrade to the latest version of RTTOV which has improved features and accuracy.

It is recommended that you consult the RTTOV v9 coefficients page here for more information on RTTOV v9 coefficients
